An Irish woman who had an abortion in New York has written about how lucky she feels compared to what happened to Indian dentist Savita Halappanavar who died after doctors refused to terminate her unviable fetus’s life.

Irish comic Dylan Moran will be in town next month for five nights at New York’s Theatre 80. Moran is currently in Connemara shooting Calvary alongside Brendan Gleeson and Chris O’Dowd. He talks to Cahir O'Doherty about his work, his new film and what to expect when he hits the city.
